ASCE 38-02 PDF Download

ASCE 38-02 is a standard guideline for the collection and depiction of existing subsurface utility data. Its main purpose is to provide a systematic approach for obtaining reliable information about subsurface utilities, which is crucial for making informed decisions and managing risks during construction projects.

The standard addresses several important aspects, including how to obtain utility information, available technologies for obtaining such information, and how to convey the collected data to users. It also defines the responsibilities for utility data collection and depiction tasks.

One of the key features of ASCE 38-02 is the classification system for utility location information, which helps in determining the quality of the data. This classification system allows project stakeholders to understand the level of accuracy and reliability of the collected utility data and make appropriate decisions based on that information.
